What's wrong with TF2?

Oh nothing at all, it's still my most played game. I will still be firing it up on a regular basis, no matter what else I end up playing.

Pretty damn cool game. From looking at the dialogue choices it appears you can go either good or bad; does playing a good character vs. a bad character make a very big difference in the game, or is it minor like many of the other games where this sort of thing goes on?

iirc, it does effect the team members that you have in the end, and how effective they are. (long time since i played). also effects the type of powers you have, of course.

whatever you do, make sure you stick to one path all along. ending up somewhere in the middle makes you weak. stick with all lightside or all darkside powers, that is. ...and certainly don't waste any points on blaster bullshit.

Cool, thanks. I've been sickeningly nice so far, so I guess I will just stick with that and go light side.

I think I've only levelled once so far and I went with dual-wielding as my upgrade, which is awesome because I look like a real badass now. There are so many choices though, it took me forever to pick what the heck I was doing and I just let the computer choose my attribute points for me because it's too hard for me to choose.

I'm going with Braid. Just because I've had a lot of fun this last year with well-done, but lower budget games this past year. Braid is one of those gems.

I voted Braid because that's what I'm playing right now and it's quite fun.

I find the alignment system pretty fun, although I've never finished either KOTOR1 or KOTOR2 as a light side character. It's always my goal but around halfway through I get tired of being a pushover and the next NPC that wrongs me experiences drastic consequences.

Bioware seemed to confuse dark side with D&D chaotic evil in KoTOR 1. I thought Obsidian did a much better job with the dark side path in KoTOR II, where many of the dark side actions were about gaining power and doing things your way instead of bludgeoning kittens to death.

Bioware also loves to punish evil players. Light path is always the better path in their games.

Put them in a bag, shake for 10 seconds, reach in and pull the first one out!
